Nemaha County Sheriff

Nemaha County Sheriff is a local government entity located in Auburn, Nebraska, registered in the System for Award Management (SAM.gov) since 2006, with a current registration valid until January 2026. As a U.S. County government agency, the Sheriff's office operates within Nemaha County, Nebraska, serving the local community through law enforcement and judicial support functions. While not holding direct federal contract vehicles, the organization has been actively engaged in federal grant sub-award programs, specifically collaborating with state-level agencies to support critical social service initiatives.

The federal grant sub-awards received by Nemaha County Sheriff are exclusively focused on child support enforcement and related legal support services. These sub-awards, all issued by the Nebraska Department of Health & Human Services, mandate the Sheriff's office to assist in locating absent parents, establishing paternity, and securing child and spousal support. The grants operate under specific federal regulations, including 45 CFR 302.34 and provisions of the Social Security Act (42 U.S.C. 651 et seq.), with the primary objective of supporting the state's IV-D child support program. The sub-awards require the Sheriff's office to provide critical information to courts and law enforcement officials, facilitating the immediate transfer of relevant data to support child support enforcement efforts. These cooperative arrangements specifically help administer programs for children receiving Temporary Assistance to Needy Families (TANF), IV-E Foster Care Services, and non-TANF applicants, demonstrating the Sheriff's role in supporting vulnerable populations through inter-agency collaboration.
